Hi, I use a heartbeat (software monitoring the hardware) for failover on linux and it works very well. When both machine are working there is load balancing done by distributing the application running on either server. If one fails then other consumes the extra required services to keep itself running till the dead server is restarted.
This method allows me to use the standard edition and still provide high availability Cheers, Simon On 06/08/2007, M@ Bourke <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi Scott, > > if your simply after "failover protection" where a server dies for what ever > reason and ya don't want down time and the server isn't getting an intensely > massive loan then standard with a hardware (don't go a software) load > > balancer will do the trick and check if a server has carked it and direct > the traffice to the other server/servers > > M@ > > > > > > -- Cheers Simon Haddon --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "cfaussie" group.
